 |  Visas for Korea Hi, I will be going to Korea in the next few weeks to hopefully teach over the summer months. Does anyone know if schools would recruit teachers for short-term and only have a tourist visa? Anyone know what the minimum work visa length is? 12 months or shorter? Thanks. |

| If any school hires you without the correct visa, then you risk deportment and the school would be slapped a fine. There are no such short-term work visas of only 3 months. Correct me if I'm wrong. I do know quite a few teacher's however that teach English illegally. In Taiwan, the authorities don't seem to be so strict about it all. |

| In China, there are always plenty of ESL Jobs on offer. It's also not hard to find a teaching job even if you have no visa.

| Short-term visas for Korea Yeh, but I think Jason wants to teach legally for a short-term. There is no such visa in Korea. You will have to do it illegally if you really want to go and Teach English during the summer months.

| Working without a Visa in Korea Yeh, thanks for your answers guys.  Looks like I have no option, and will have to find a school to accept me short-term on my tourist visa.
